Falling for Fall....



I LOVE FALL! There are not many things that I love more in this state than it's ability to produce the best 'Fall' that I know of. Now, I have been to many states, and I have not experienced an autumn season like Minnesota. In Texas, well, there simply is no fall weather to speak of. No turning of the trees, no cool weather with leaves blowing about. Nope. In Texas it is just hot. Then there is North Carolina. Here there was fall, but it came around late October/early November. It was pretty, but it was still warm. The nights would cool, however, the days were still quite muggy. It just couldn't compare to a Minnesota fall.


When MN turns fall, I turn into a new person! I feel like there is nothing in the world that could make me upset. I am as happy as can be. I love to cook, bake (wow! you know I am a new person if I like to bake :), open the windows, wear sweatshirts and jeans, listen to Harry Connick Jr., burn candles, go for walks, play at apple orchards.......oh the list could go on and on. And what is best of all this season?! I get to share it all with my son! As if I thought the season couldn't get any better, now I get to bundle my son up with me and take him for a stroll through our neighborhood! How delightful!


Even Jackson looks Great in the Fall!!


Here is Jackson, showing off with Daddy how he can stand! What strong Men I have in my life :)

Oh my gosh! That is just about the cutest thing I have EVER seen. Okay, Mark wouldn't like that description of Jackson and his fall attire, let me try that again--that is the studliest looking three month old I have ever seen!

I love fall too!!! Except the fall today, because it is rainy and quite cold and windy. Beautiful pictures of Jackson - I mean, handsome... :) He sure is growing!
